Digital technology like smartphones has revolutionised the way we navigate daily life and the way our whole society functions. We have supercomputers in our hands that can answer almost any question instantly and perform many tasks that make life easier.Such technology has its downsides, like the explosion of accessibility to pornography and the prevalence of online bullying. Even so, our stance as Christians is often something like, “Let’s use this technology wisely, but not abuse it”, as if the technology is simply a neutral instrument. But the good things of our world (like technology or money) can become much more than this: they can become master-teachers that dominate and disciple us.
In this biblical ethics workshop, we want to do more than share helpful tips on godly smartphone use (although such tips are useful). We want to zoom out and consider how technology disciples us—how it profoundly reorders our attitudes, operating beliefs and behaviours, not just personally, but on a society-wide level.
